Hm, I thought anyone could edit the doc. Learn new things about my own incompetence every day.
I'll have to change it tonight when I can access a computer. Google Docs mobile is not letting me change my share settings.

Anyone try the que'ing for the battlegrounds in a group? I personally enjoy the PvP side of that over the zerg-fest that is WvWvW at the moment. Maybe we can set up a night for that. With a little coordination I would think we could dominate the pick-up groups.

I did some ranked PvP yesterday evening with my thief. It's highly enjoyable, even if the rewards are purely cosmetic. Unlike with WvWvW, you don't often dominate or get dominated consistently because the teams are rearranged at each map switch. Keeps you from getting either worn down from losing or complacent from winning.

I only have about 3k in ranked pvp points so far not sure about group joining but surely you can

Not to beat a dead horse but..
As I posted last night I tried to withdraw something I could use from the guild bank but couldn't do that either?? So, I am pecking shite with the wrong chickens or that is the reason why the bank is full.
The guild banker I am trying is in...umm..the Norn home city, with the bear,wolf, raven and leopard lodges. Hells Bells, for all I know I'm trying to snag some other guild's goodies.
Don't think so though because I can see the log and there are people I know are members of WarS, so there is that.

I you will be on tonight I will check it out with you and we will get it sorted out, worst case I can with draw what you need and then send it to you, but we need to find out what the problem is.

Sorry, Woody. I was so distracted I missed the obvious problem before. You are still at "initiate" rank, so you can't withdraw from the bank.
We've organized it so that only members and above can withdraw, just to avoid a heist-and-quit. As cynical as I am, I don't actually think anyone in our guild would do that, but due to past experiences we can't take chances.
DoUrden, can you bump WoodCrafter to member if you get on before I do? I think... hope your rank allows you to do that. Right click on the rank insignia in the roster window and you should get a drop down menu.

Will do. This will be my first AC run hopefully we have at least one person that isn't a noob to the dungeon. 
I think we may end up with enough for two groups though.

so im reading up on AC Story on some other site.. appears its pretty challenging
as a guardian, ill be wearing a 1h+shield and using my defensive skills. dps wont be great but id rather not die, so i can use all my support skills... i have a bunch
5 people all using a 2hander dpsing wont cut it
wow, lots of complaining and crying.. is it really that tough? trash mobs 1 shot everything?

GW2 has hit 2 million in sales
Posted on 9/13/12 at 1:13 pm to jefforize
Just go into it expecting to wipe a few times and that "trash mobs" here are not really trash mobs. Can't hold GW2 dungeons by the standards of another game's mechanics.
One standard enemy doesn't prove too tough, but two or more at a time can wreck you. Just because a mob is not "named" doesn't mean that it should be a faceroll away from getting dispatched. Also, you will be fighting in some tight spaces and kiting/dodging will be hard. You just have to try to react more often than you don't.
Go in humble and patient and you should exprience fun rather than frustration.

Longbow ranger with some control utility. My area heal is also not too shabby in a tight spot.
Posted on 9/13/12 at 1:55 pm to Muppet
damn im excited about this support guardian build... just have to tell someone
1st set 1h Mace + Shield
(Protection and Healing Boons, Light Combo Fields)
2nd set 1h sword (or scepter) + focus
(remove conditions and heal)
Healing skill: AoE Cone heal
Utility
3 Shouts which give the following boons: Protection, health regen, Protection, Swiftness, Stability, Retalitation
Elite: tome of courage
Powerful support skills
Traits (the sexy part)
Everytime a boon is applied i get healed and this build uses 8 boons total
Lots of boons, condition removing , Aegis, Healing, and even turning allies conditions into boons. Along with some adjustments to gear to allot for +healing im liking our chances

I've made it through the place with everyone dieing maybe once, and I've also hit a brick wall at the second boss another time. The beauty to the instances in this game is the difficulty. They are very difficult for an unorganized group, but with solid teamwork it can be a breeze.
Regarding the Guardian play in there, you're res'ing traits, shields, and boons during the fights are more important then trying to do mass amounts of damage. You will have plenty of opportunity to help kill stuff too.
Don't forget the greatsword Whirl finishers. Cleansing the group every 5-6 seconds can be pretty important on certain fights. In other words be ready to swap weapons and roles at all times.

I jump on the game around 7:15 to 8:00. If they have room for tonights AC run I would be happy to jump in. I play a Mesmer.
Posted on 9/13/12 at 2:29 pm to Sick Freak
have you pvpd with the mesmer much? how are they
Posted on 9/13/12 at 3:03 pm to jefforize
Not yet but I need too. From just doing PvE I get a feeling that mesmer class is a soft class. Will have to do a lot of dancing if I face one Vs one.
Posted on 9/13/12 at 3:54 pm to Sick Freak
That is true, I tried a Mesmer but it seems I was ducking and dodging for my life but I decided to roll Necro (Use to be Nerco/Mesmer back in the old days of GW1) and for some strange reason, I cant figure out how Duel Dagger can work or Dagger/Warhorn.
Right now, i am doing Scepter/Dagger and Staff (if I can ever find one)
